In my mind this is animated by Miyazaki. 10 out of 10. Great job everyone

[@noahjp002]

Brennan's descriptions of the harbortown definitely evoke scenes from the Wizard of Earthsea.

[@MeonLights]

In the Children's Adventure and the Patreon Talks they do bring up Miyazaki and allude to the animations quite a bit 😊 I'm sure they imagine similar situations

[@colinfewell2943]

Mr. Soup is yet another classic character created half in the moment and half with careful preparation. Instant soup. My favorite 😊

[@ThroatChop]

Brennan's ability to RP a fox to perfection shouldn't astound me at this point but I can't help smiling the entire time.

[@dubyah7308]

Oh my gosh, she did not just invite a spooky spirit to 'come another day.' My evil DM portion of my mind started spinning so hard.

[@sventhescribe]

The King of Night! The Fox! The reunion! How can you not love this episode?

[@MT-fr7ge]

The Man in Black treads many worlds indeed. Loving this!

[@nymla313]

1:29:07 poor Brennan trying his damndest to pretend to not know enough bird names _mid-song_ while his castmates egg him on 😂

I love Eursalon so much. I love how in his true essence, being a spirit split between worlds- he wants to be honorable, he looks for how to come back but *with* the honor that he wants- his want that makes him...human.
And he speaks of his flaws as if they make him less than human. And for him to believe he's not human, and for him to believe he's not a spirit- he's lost.
And it's a very human thing to feel lost due to shame and embarrassment- and failure.
But the thing I love of his story is how that is EXACTLY what makes him human. (Spoiler ish ahead) and not just that but DESPITE his flaws he continues to try to be honorable. And that is also very human. And it's sad that he still wants to be a spirit but I hope he grows to learn that he isn't either- he is both. And with that, he is probably the best to understand both worlds and bring them together

[@Aliktren]

broke my heart, the world is not what I expected is almost every childs experience of growing up

[@billiestechschulte8718]

I fully admit I am a full-blown simp for this series! I love the story, the humor mixed with the drama, it would be an amazing movie or tv series...*hint to the universe in charge of Hollywood* Truly amazing people playing amazing characters and storytelling!

[@availableXusername]

I cannot WAIT for all of the implications the lingua arcana when we get there. UGH it's so good.

[@malikwest8367]

I kinda want them to keep the idea of titles/name that kids give spirit guardians are ones they also accept as well as their official ones

[@lark7655]

listening to this campaign i am once again reminded that brennan's mom ran a celtic pagan coven for a while whilst he grew up

[@kodiaksigel]

I need to get my hands on a Brennan Lee Mulligan autobiography

[@elderwyrmstudio5133]

The score of this episode is soooo good

[@apsleyhigh]

to exude such acute shame in the moment of "being caught" truly moved me

[@kodiaksigel]

Yelling at Brennan to name other birds is soooo funny

[@shauniegroover9611]

I started with the children's adventure and finally got around to listening to this during my work week and I love it so much. Such a great story and gaming experience.

[@TheRedstonian]

Should I stop here and go listen to the Children's Adventure first, do you think?

[@that_frog_kurtis]

No! A year AND A DAY! You always ask for a year and a day! That's just how it works.

[@darrienacheson7058]

Grandma Ren described some stars as being nosy! Like maybe she knew that some starts where being uses to watch from above by the witch of wind and stars!!

[@ayalaaronson4100]

Such a great episode

[@forstudentpower]

"That's some goooood soup" killed me, the gut laugh I needed in such an emotional moment 😂

[@lucasprior7922]

41:50 Did Brennan actually belch on command here? Seriously, what *can't* this man do to deliver the greatest RPG experience on Earth?

[@LawTaranis]

9:30
Thanks, Brennan, I needed a new sleep paralysis demon.

[@quebec2468]

1:11:42 ad starts, 1:15:10 ad ends

🎉🎉🎉

[@fluffs.4510]

1:15:40 the music here is my ultimate favorite vibe. Is it obtainable?

[@rikimaru700]

Name other birds!
